Cover Coughs and Sneezes

Cover Coughs and Sneezes the Proper Way!

Did you know that germs can live for 2 hours or longer on many
surfaces? When you cough or sneeze, droplets get released into the
air. These droplets contain germs, including those germs that can
make others sick.

If you use your hands to cover your coughs and sneezes, you can
spread germs to everything you touch, such as door knobs, keyboards,
elevator buttons, telephones, and even food. Covering coughs and
sneezes the right way can protect others from getting sick.
